I'm pinching myself - feels like I'm dreaming but have marks up my arm so it's definitely real. Go Dees.

When the inferior Jetta missed that goal was when I started to think, hmmm. Just had that feel to it.

The effort that went in to the last goal was immense. It goes down on the score sheet to PMac, but it had the blood and sweat from 22 of them. They were tired and injured, but they just kept grinding it forward with everything they had. I think it's the sheer guts of it that has made me giddy.

Anyone think Viney will get a week?

I thought that initially, but ball was in play and I think he had eyes on it. But who knows with this MRP.

Someone put the final two minutes of the QB win on YouTube with various radio stations on commentary, instead of the TV.

Would love someone to get the Perth-based radio commentary into that video from tonight's game.

He might miss next week through injury, but not suspension.

He was contesting the ball and it was an accident. Dale Thomas wasn't suspended for doing the same thing.

An obviously important match to win from a ladder/season perspective, but also so important from an exposure/sponsorship/etc. perspective.

Prime time Saturday night game, leading into our first Friday night game in 5 years. We should expect 50,000+ at the G next week and some good ratings, which really helps with holding/obtaining sponsorship and getting a better fixture next year.

SHOULD not but probably will - MRP after all need to send a message, and don't really know what that message is  

Had his eyes on the ball in a marking contest clash - no case to answer.

I genuinely don't think I'm overstating it by saying that was the most significant win for this club in over a decade. Several star players missing, key in game injuries, 6 day break, interstate trip where we haven't won in 15 years, final quarter (and very late) deficit... HUGE amount of grit, flair and mental toughness showed by the boys. This team has officially arrived.

[censored] I love this club.

Oliver's hands to Hibberd in the build-up to the final goal though....

We were under-manned and down and out but willed across the line. Unbelievable belief, guts and courage!  My red and blue heart is close to bursting outside my chest tonight!

Come Eagles and umpires

Please heed the call
Don't give out free kicks and
Don't dive on the ball
For he that gets hurt
Will be he who has stalled
The Demon inside
That's awaking.
It'll shake up the Finals
And make the Top Four
For the times they are a-changin'.

    The tough on baller won his second Keith 'Bluey' Truscott Trophy in a narrow battle with skipper Max Gawn and Alex Neal-Bullen and battled on manfully in the face of a number of injury niggles.

    TRAINING: Wednesday 13th November 2024

    A couple of Demonland Trackwatchers braved the rain and headed down to Gosch's paddock to bring you their observations from the second day of Preseason training for the 1st to 4th Year players. DITCHA'S PRESEASON TRAINING OBSERVATIONS I attended some of the training today. Richo spoke to me and said not to believe what is in the media, as we will good this year. Jefferson and Kentfield looked big and strong.  Petty was doing all the training. Adams looked like he was in rehab.  KE

    2024 Player Reviews: #1 Steven May

    The years are rolling by but May continued to be rock solid in a key defensive position despite some injury concerns. He showed great resilience in coming back from a nasty rib injury and is expected to continue in that role for another couple of seasons.

    2024 Player Reviews: #4 Judd McVee

    It was another strong season from McVee who spent most of his time mainly at half back but he also looked at home on a few occasions when he was moved into the midfield. There could be more of that in 2025.
